A HUGE MIRACLE-

During the month of Febuary- we were granted a matching grant of $4000, through Lifesong For Oprhans. Which is funded by the James Foundation(Family Christian Bookstores). We are excited about this Grant. Aaron and I have been humbled with this grant as well. We knew that we would have to send support letters out, and it is soo hard for us to ask for money.
We know that God has a plan and he knows where our funds will come from for this Adoption- so we trust and have faith in him.
Our fundraising for this grant had a ending date , which was March 9.
As we got our email telling us how much we raised- we stand in Awe of God.
The grant we were hoping to raise $4000- we ended up raising over double this amount!!
Everytime I think about it I get tears in my eyes. God continues to show us that he is in control and he will guide us and fund this adoption.
So with this grant we were hoping to raise $8000, we ended up with over $13,000. (including the $4000 match!!!)
We ar so gratful, humbled, and in Awe of the miracles that he showers on us.
If you feel that money is stopping you from doing something God is calling you to, he will supply your needs- just as he has for us.
